Until now, the size of the engine and transmission to a major extent determines the shape of a car, but Pininfarina might perform a little revolution by unveiling the Sintesi concept car at Geneva.
Engineers focused on developing a new fuel cell powertrain which can be spread out in the car. The Sintesi features the electric motors in the wheel while the fuel cell stacks are positioned on the vehicle frame. The central tunnel stores the tank for biofuel and a the device that transforms the biofuel into hydrogen. The Sintesi has a power output of 700bhp.
Pininfarina developed the system with the help of a British company Nuvera Fuel Cells.
